In this study, we combined high-field (7 T) VASO with a simultaneous-multi-slice (SMS) acquisition scheme. We implemented and evaluated this method for simultaneous acquisition of functional changes in cerebral blood volume and BOLD signal at high spatial resolution, using a visuo-motor task, and covering a large number of brain areas including V1, V5, M1, and S1. We show that SMS-VASO can measure blood volume changes with high spatial resolution and satisfactory CNR, across multiple brain regions and with better local specificity than GE-BOLD signal.
